Mathematics, Physics & Computer Science (MPCs)
B.Sc with Mathematics, Physics and Computer Science is a three-year undergraduate programme with equal impetus to the basic sciences and their applicability in information technology.
This course enables the students to develop mathematical skills, paradigms, concepts and theorems that help in construction and deconstruction of mathematical models, logical tools which have applications in various other fields which prepares students for further study and research in physics. This course also provides the students with research and career options in computer science.
First Year
The students learn basic mathematical skills of solving differential equations which help in generating mathematical models in various fields, and concepts of 'Three dimensional geometry'. In physics the students learn principles of mechanics & sound which helps to understand more complex problems at later stage of the course. In mechanics, waves and oscillations they understand Fourier analysis. In computer science, students learn fundamentals of computer science with concepts of computer architecture and operating systems. They are introduced to programming skills through a high level like C. They are also trained to use MS Office tools effectively.
Second Year
Students learn basic mathematical concepts of abstract algebra which plays a vital role in developing various logical tools for computer science & electronics, and real analysis which is useful in logical & analytical ability. In physics the students gain knowledge of optics and thermodynamics, which helps them in understanding and solving the complex problems in day to day life. In computer science, they will have mathematical foundations for computer sciences such as graph theory and number theory. They will also learn concepts of data structures and programming skills pertaining to real time applications using object oriented programming like Java.
Third Year
Students learn linear algebra with matrix theory which helps in solving system of equations and use the same for solving various real life problems. Also students learn multiple integrals to calculate area bounded by various surfaces. In physics they learn concepts of modern physics, electronics and electro-magnetic theory. In computer science, students are given further training in applied mathematical concepts related to relational algebra, set theory and boolean algebra. They also learn concepts of modern database management system and operating system. They also study various aspects of operating systems like process management, memory management, storage management, protection and security issues & distributed systems.
Course Outcome
At the end of the course, students develop problem solving skills and learn various concepts which help in developing logical tools and models used to solve various real life problems. Also the students learn traditional techniques of solving algebraic, transcendental equations, differential and integral equations, which have applications in many disciplines. The students would attain a sound level in basic physics, and laid a secure foundation for research and higher studies. The students will have developed problem-solving skills, experimental and data analysis skills in physics. They learn various concepts which help them in understanding physical phenomenon in nature. In computer science, students develop ability to write algorithms for problems ranging from simple to complex problems, understand the practical implementation of the algorithm using programming language like C, Java and develops programs to solve the problems in best possible way. Students will also develop documentation skills and presentation tolls. The students will be able to find the role of databases for the organization and to apply them to the real world problems. They also appreciate the implications of operating systems in development of computing systems.
